Expression data from adult wild-type and transgenic zebrafish revealed Oligo-Fucoidan Prevents Radiation induced fibrosis and secondary tumors in zebrafish

ABSTRACT: Radiotherapy (RT) often causes unwanted side effects such as radiation-induced fibrosis (RIF) and second malignancies (SM). Fucoidan, a sulfated polysaccharide extracted from brown seaweed, has many biological effects including anti-inflammation and anti-tumor. In the present study, we investigated the radioprotective effect of Oligo-Fucoidan (OF) using zebrafish animal model. Using an oligo-fucoidan oral gavage in wild-type and adult transgenic zebrafish, we then used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression after fucoidan treatment and identified distinct classes of up- and down-regulated genes during this process.

Expression data from adult zebrafish

Project description:Oligo-fucoidan (OF), a sulfated polysaccharide extracted from brown seaweed, exhibits anti-inflammation and antitumor effects, however, knowledge concerning the detailed mechanism of oligo-fucoidan on liver cells is obscure. In this study, we investigate the effect of oligo-fucoidan in normal hepatocytes using transcriptomic analysis. Using an oligo-fucoidan oral gavage in adult wild-type zebrafish, we then used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression after fucoidan treatment and identified distinct classes of up- and down-regulated genes during this process.

Expression data from adult transgenic zebrafish

Project description:Hepatocellular carcinoma is the fourth leading cause of cancer-related deaths worldwide. Many carcinogens induce inflammation and cirrhosis, and eventually develop into liver cancer. Fucoidan is sulfated polysaccharide that is mainly found in brown seaweeds. In this study, we investigated the effects and mechanisms of low molecular weight fucoidan (i.e. oligo-fucoidan) preventing hepatocarcinogenesis using HBx,Src, and HBx,Src,p53-/+ transgenic zebrafish liver cancer model. Using an oligo-fucoidan oral gavage in adult transgenic zebrafish, we then used microarrays to detail the global programme of gene expression after fucoidan treatment and identified distinct classes of up- and down-regulated genes during this process.

Anti-proliferation activity of fucoidan on MKN45 gastric cancer cells and downregulation of phosphorylated ASK1, a cell-cycle-regulated cyclin-dependent kinase

Project description:Fucoidan is a high-molecular polysaccharide whose main constituent is sulfated fucose. Extensive studies have demonstrated numerous interesting biological activities for fucoidan. We specifically focused on the anti-proliferation activity of fucoidan and examined the underlying mechanism in MKN45 gastric cancer cells. BrdU assay revealed that fucoidan impeded the MKN45 cell cycle by approximately 50%, and clonogenic assay also showed that fucoidan inhibited cell proliferation. Preliminary examinations of fucoidan using LDH assay showed no immediate cytotoxic effects at 24-h exposure. However, longer time courses revealed inhibition of cell growth at 4 days in a dose-dependent manner. Microarray analysis in MKN45 cells treated with fucoidan identified genes that were upregulated and downregulated in response to fucoidan, including MAP3K5, or ASK1 (apoptosis signal-regulating kinase), which was upregulated by 1.38-fold. Western blot confirmed that fucoidan increased ASK1 protein levels, while reducing the levels of phosphorylated ASK1. Reduction of ASK1 by siRNA decreased proliferation of MKN45 cells. Our findings show that fucoidan may suppress cellular proliferation and DNA synthesis in MKN45 cells by suppressing the ASK1-p38 signaling pathway through reduction of phosphorylated ASK1 levels.

Fucoidan alleviates high-fat diet-induced dyslipidemia and atherosclerosis in ApoEshl mice deficient in apolipoprotein E expression

Project description:Fucoidan, a sulfated polysaccharide extracted from brown seaweeds, possesses many biological activities including anti-inflammatory and anti-oxidant activities. We aimed to investigate the protective effects of fucoidan on dyslipidemia and atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein E-deficient mice (ApoEshl mice) and to elucidate its molecular targets in the liver by using a transcriptomic approach. For 12 weeks, ApoEshl mice were fed a high-fat diet (HFD) supplemented with either 1% or 5% fucoidan. Fucoidan supplementation significantly reduced tissue weight (liver and white adipose tissue), blood lipid, total-cholesterol (TC), triglyceride (TG), non-high density lipoprotein-cholesterol (Non-HDL-C), and glucose levels in HFD-fed ApoEshl mice but increased plasma lipoprotein lipase (LPL) activity and HDL-C levels. Fucoidan also reduced hepatic steatosis levels (liver size, TC and TG levels, and lipid peroxidation) and increased white adipose tissue LPL activity. DNA microarray analysis and quantitative reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction demonstrated differential expression of genes encoding proteins involved in lipid metabolism, energy homeostasis, and insulin sensitivity, by activating Ppara and inactivating Srebf1. Fucoidan supplementation markedly reduced the thickness of the lipid-rich plaque, lipid peroxidation, and foaming macrophage accumulation in the aorta in HFD-fed ApoEshl mice. Thus, fucoidan supplementation appears to have anti-dyslipidemic and anti-atherosclerotic effects by inducing LPL activity and inhibiting the effects of inflammation and oxidative stress in HFD-fed ApoEshl mice.

Combining transcriptomics with functional phylogenomics elucidates the ecophysiology of sulfatases in marine bacteria

Project description:We present a study combining gene expression analyses and bioinformatic assessment. 1120 sequences annotated as sulfatase encoding from eight Rhodopirellula strains were clustered into 173 groups of orthologous and paralogous genes. A selection of 709 sulfatase gene strains were aligned to 66 sulfatase genes of known function to check for their respective substrate specificity. Thereby, 22 major phylogenetic clusters were observed with just five being mixed clusters between Rhodopirellula and reference sequences. This indicates a huge diversity on the substrate recognition level, unexpected from conventional annotations in public databases. Exemplarily, Rhodopirellula baltica SH1T was grown on different sulfated polysaccharides. Subsequent gene expression analyses using whole genome microarrays revealed distinct sulfatase expression profiles based on substrates tested. Expression profiles strongly point towards a functional link between sulfated polysaccharides and sulfatases. Moreover, further potential functions can be deduced from the expression profiles. In silico assessment backed up in vivo findings and raised the question, whether related strains and species are even more adapted to utilizing sulfated polysaccharides present in marine environments. Dual channel microarrays have been used for comparing the gene expression of R. baltica SH1T under reference condition (grown on glucose) and grown on sulfated polysaccharides as substrates of interest. Substrates tested have been: Chondroitin sulfate, lambda carrageenan and fucoidan. Control: 3 Biological replicates, Substrates tested: 2-3 Biological replicates, 2-3 replicates per array

Induced torpor as a countermeasure for low dose radiation exposure in a zebrafish model

Project description:We hypothesised that induction of a torpor-like state would confer a radioprotective effect given the evidence that hibernation extends survival times in irradiated squirrels compared to active controls. To test this hypothesis, a torpor-like state was induced in zebrafish using melatonin treatment and cold temperature, and radiation exposure was administered twice over the course of 10 days. The protective effects of induced-torpor were assessed via RNA sequencing of mRNA extracted from the GIT. A systems level analysis was performed on the transcriptomic data to characterise the cellular phenotypes in radiation, torpor, and torpor+radiation groups. The results revealed that melatonin and cold temperature successfully induced a torpor-like state in zebrafish as shown by decreased metabolism and activity levels. Low dose radiation caused DNA damage and oxidative stress triggering a stress response, including steroidal signalling and changes to metabolism, damage to the central nervous system and cell cycle arrest. This stress response was attenuated in the torpor+radiation group by an increase in biosynthesis, proliferation, cell survival signals and expression of genes involved in protection against the adverse effects of radiation, particularly in neurons, suggesting a radioprotective effect conferred by a torpor state. This proof-of-concept model provides compelling initial evidence for utilizing an induced torpor-like state as a potential countermeasure for radiation exposure.
